Hey ouro don't be dense. I've said I'll share more before this day is over. But not way too fucking soon so that it is all that's discussed. Are you just playing at being dense or can you literally not move on from that?

1. [m] Gorlak - Seems like town.
4. [f] melonrabbit - I'll accept her PR claim for now.
7. [m] nin1000 - Ostensibly town, but could be godfather or Melon's not a cop.
9. [m] Pop-O-Matic - Not posting enough.
10. [m] Kawl_USC - I trust his PR claim, I want more details from him during the next day phase.
11. [m] Kyanrute - Not posting enough.

nice and solid list Exmachina.
Lets clear the air, since you pretty much showed that you are invested in the game

I'm being dense about dangling information? Sure, you can reveal stuff later. Hopefully no one is dumb enough to turbo before then like these trigger-happy Ouro voters. I'm just expecting that we have people like Pop and Gorlak who won't have anything to bring up and will just be sitting here with our thumbs up our ass for the next 24 hours.

ex - nothing wrong with fluff posts if there's content to go along with it. this is a game after all.

What do you actually know in a game of Mafia outside of when someone dies?

Most of your posts are fluff.

Tell me then. What is the difference here:

- Kawl claims doctor. Kawl does not reveal who he protected. Kawl dies.
- Kawl claims doctor. Kawl reveals his targets. Kawl dies.

(Kawl I'm not using this post to push you any more so much as explaining to ex his "logic.")

Assuming Kawl is revealed to be the doctor:

In scenario A, we don't know who Kawl protected.
In scenario B, we can reasonably assume Kawl did protect those people. We can speculate as to why he protected those people, we can speculate why they were targeted, etc.

Scenario A: Kawl was doctor, great.
Scenario B: Ah, maybe Kawl prevented Ouro's death on Night 2.

Ouro you consistently wanted PR to come forward and reveal themselves today. You pushed for it insistently. Your reasoning was the post exmachina quoted. You NEEDED all the PRs to reveal your scum melon theory. Something that was surely in the heads of others as well.

Why exactly did you need to know who is a power role and what they did? There definitely was no need to know any of this before posting your theory. You disguised a simple theory as something ground breaking, if not game winning, yet all you did was to get Kawl to claim. And no one bats an eye about it...

---
Next up you shuffle your suspect list because I find you suspicious? OMGUS all the way Ouro?

Let's focus on your read of me

Early D1 Sorian asks you if you rather would vote me or Pop.
Toss up really. Neither has done anything.

Somewhat at the end of D1
Lean scum/neutral: Nin, Melon, Sorian, Stanley (yes I know there are probably not 4 scum+neutral)
Null: Everyone else
Town: Ouro, Maybe Karl
Start of D2:
I want to focus on Kyan, melon, and exmachina today, since none of them ended up on myself or Sorian yesterday.

D3 after melon pushed and pushed to get an opinion from him about me:
I don't think Gorlak is scum. I'm asking you if you do.
Not right now, but always possible. Him bussing is a little less likely to me because of the aforementioned "protection."

A few hours later:
I'm not fighting against melon in the last few posts. At least I wasn't trying to.

And my list hasn't really changed, at least until you let us in on your nightly activities.

Scum - Gorlak, exmachina
Lean Scum - Pop, Kyan
On the radar - melon, kawl

Suddenly I'm the top scum while your list "hasn't really changed". Well, that's odd. Surely Ouro has a good reason - let's take a look at it:

The top 4 are the claimed ordinaries. Obviously someone is lying.

Gorlak is asking questions like a madman which I feel he tends to do to look active
Literally in every game he and I are in there's a post from Gorlak saying "Hey, let's get Ourobolus because of reasons!"

I just tune it out at this point

While the first part of the second quote is true, I also did it at the start of this game, the second part is wrong. I laid down my reasoning against you and surely did not joke about it - you however didn't tune out, you paint me as scum the moment I voice suspicion against you.

Why do you think I'm scum? Anything would have to lie within my last 15 posts or so because you clearly stated something else just a few hours earlier.

I explained why I was pushing for PRs:

1. It would be nice to potentially confirm a townie by knowing who was protected, or if it was a roleblocker, a possible scum
2. At this point we have possibly 3 PRs. We have 3 days to mislynch (assuming one more scum). We have plenty of time.

As for my reads, wow, it's almost as if as the game progresses and people post, my reads might be affected. Strange concept, I know.

Again, unless Kawl or Melon are playing us, the last scum is here:

Gorlak
Exmachina
Pop
Kyan

I've thought it over about nin, and I'm pretty sure he is town barring a Godfather. If melon is a cop, then she found him to be town (again, unless GF). If melon is lying about being a cop and is in fact scum, town is really the only thing to pick this early on, and I'm operating under the assumption that there is only one scum remaining.

Technically, Tim could be using a sanity Effect and Melon's alignment reads could be random.

No, no. You went from "not scum reading" to more likely to be scum than pop and kyan because I ask questions in the last 20 hours. That's what I showed in my last post. And I want you to be more explicit what exactly caused this change. You don't get to wriggle yourself out of this play easily.

I went back and read the thread. That's pretty much it. It was less of a "you moved up" so much that the others "moved down."

so you still don't scum read me, but the others are even less scummy. lol, k, welcome back ouro

The only reason I scum read you right now really is because you're one of the claimed ordinaries and that's where I think scum is right now, and that I think you're mostly asking lots and lots of questions to blend in.

Pop I think has been contributing a decent amount (until the past 24 hours or whenever his last post was), and Kyan...well...who the fuck knows.

You and exmachina are the ones driving the discussion my way so while I think one of you has to be town, the other isn't.

Again, assuming melon isn't playing us for fools :p

Gorlak:

Gorlak posted 24 hours ago.

Oh, LP is in this game? :/ You're scum. I just have a gut feeling, you're scum.

A common D1 result is a spread of votes, but in a small game, a scum stack would affect the outcome. There seems to be a subtle push towards nin, which would eliminate the need for stacking.

VOTE: StanleyPalmTree

I don't understand your reasoning here, boy. Scum voting together affects D1 outcome? Because there are three votes on nin scum doesn't need to vote together? Hence you put Stanley on 3 votes as well, because he plays safe (which you can't fault him for?)?

Lastly,

Vote: Lone_Prodigy

Fuck wifom. Stan was killed because he was suspicious of LP. Let's tunnel this one.

I fully expected either LP or Pop-o-matic to die because those were the ones with the least amount of suspicion or potential to get lynched. Getting Stan lynched would've been easier. So why waste a NK on Stan? I'm going to reread his posts.



exmachina64:

L_P's very first post:
Hello.

Vote: exmachina64

New blood!

Later in the day:
Get your own vote prod, nin. I voted for exmachina first.

UNVOTE

My last post was late, but the point still stands. I had a vote on exmachina and nin comes in and also drops a vote on him.

I was wondering when we'd get to the "number of scum" speculation.

First reads list from exmachina:
3. Lone_Prodigy - haven't gotten too much of a read on him, not sure if he's not posting often or if I'm just not noticing his posts.
Null: Lone_Prodigy

exmachina voting for nin seems out of self-preservation, along with being an easy safe choice.

You're welcome to track me tonight (if that's your power), if it'll make Ouro feel better.

I don't trust Ouro, but I trust you.

VOTE: Lone_Prodigy



Pop-o-matic:

Pop hasn't posted since his opening Sorian vote.

Pop posts this which I have no idea what it means.

And most of L_P's scant few posts have been on the fluffy side besides his slight backhand at melon, so they could also easily be free kills.

Sure I could've died last night. But wouldn't scum want me not contributing the rest of the game while knocking off a more active poster? I mean, we could do this all day.

Has Pop posted today?

Just got here and it seems like the bus is already taking off without me. Don't know what to make of mellon's tracker/watcher claim, but it's the best lead to go off of, and L_P's looked kinda sus already, so...

Lone_Prodigy



Kyanrute:

LP seems indifferent. .

What else... Kyan's vote on Stanley had little reasoning behind it.

I find it more likely that Stan was killed for the reasons I mentioned instead of his vote on LP. Some folks showed some doubt towards Stan, why kill a possible future lynch candidate? Again, the ideas I presented fit, though this does not mean they should be considered a fact.

LP and Pop were among the mildest reactions to my day one nonsense. LP did not care much for it and Pop just called me a troll. LP looks worse with his indifference while Pop's stance is at least somewhat understandable.



Other notes:

exmachina has done a complete 180 on me from D1.
I don't think I've played with Ouro before, his posts haven't come across as scum to me yet. Unless I missed some scum tell, it looks like he's trying to get people to be more active.

Everyone is playing exactly how I would expect them to play on Day 1.

Did Kawl explain his exmachina vote? What about melon's vote on Sorian (seems kind of late in the day to make a joking vote?)

exmachina voting for nin seems out of self-preservation, along with being an easy safe choice.

Sorian voted for Gorlak for inactivity reasons. Also safe.

What else... Kyan's vote on Stanley had little reasoning behind it.

A common D1 result is a spread of votes, but in a small game, a scum stack would affect the outcome. There seems to be a subtle push towards nin, which would eliminate the need for stacking.

VOTE: StanleyPalmTree

I haven't been able to glean much from Stanley being NKed. Not sure why scum went after him, didn't seem like an obvious target. I suspect there are multiple scum in the Sorian vote and they disguised their votes as based upon his aggressive behavior. Gorlak and Ouro are the most obvious targets to me.

I meant to go back and read everyone's posts, but I didn't get around to it.

I'll place my vote and see what happens though.

VOTE: Ourobolus

Most of your posts are fluff.

tl;dr:

Gorlak - Indifferent of LP on D1, aggressive D2

exmachina - called out by LP several times, largely ignores LP until he decides to jump on the vote wagon on D2

Pop - Not sure what to think here. Not much interaction and neither seems to really be addressing the other directly

Kyan - slight defense of LP regarding Stan's kill, but not sure if it's relevant or not
 

Not going to bother with trying to go back and properly nest those quotes.

LP voted for me because I was an easy target and I voted for Nin because he seemed suspicious to me. We've gone back and forth over this, for the time being, I accept Nin as town yet here you are trying to drum up bullshit.

On D1, I liked that you were an active player because I had just come from a relatively inactive game. Gradually, my opinion of you soured from when I thought you were a simply an active, aggressive town player.

I didn't jump on a vote wagon on D2, I decided to follow the recommendation of someone who most in the game, notably excluding you, think is a town PR. Surprise, Melon was right! You're really trying to work me into your bullshit theory about Melon being scum and killing LP for some reason?

Suddenly, I'm the focus of your scum conspiracy theory and your other suspects have fallen away.

Are you purposefully being dense? That long-ass post I made has nothing to do with that theory. I've largely thrown that to the wayside, but I'll still maintain a little bit of healthy skepticism about melon in the meantime.

The past was literally just the interactions between the four other vanilla townies and LP. I assume if you only read 25% of it then I guess you could say it was focused on you. The other notes were just something I noticed as I was going through it all.

LP voted for me because I was an easy target

So please explain this. His vote happened 3 posts into the day. Three. Tres.
Ten minutes after the game started.

That's called an RNG vote, or a prod vote, etc.

I'm curious what you did during those ten minutes that placed a target on your back, and why can't I find that post(s)?

D1
What are your thoughts on everyone else

That's everything... No other direct interaction between these two. Than we have Ouro something maybe from LP

What's questionable about Ouro? The Stan push? I mean, that's how Stan plays, which doesn't tell us anything. Should Ouro know better? Maybe. Should Kyan know better than to follow, even if it's on a lark? Maybe.

UNVOTE

and finally this:
Was actually not 3-3 until Ouro voted.

VOTE: Sorian

Ouro responds with an "uhh"?

The other connection between LP and Ouro is the push against Stan as I already brought up:

Ouro fighting Stan because his vote was safe af. And look at how serious Ouro was about this:

with all that said, i think ill vote for the one who still hasnt spoken up,
vote: Lone_Prodigy
actually i think i might be ok with voting for stanley after this bullshit
Vote: StanleyPalmtree

I don't like Stanley leaving his vote on LP
Explaining it to Kawl:
That's kinda my point. If it is his final vote it is as safe as can be.
can we get some votes on stan
Convincing Kyan (yes, that was probably a joke, but Kyan's vote stuck there till the end, something we should note as well)
i will subtly modify RNG in my next game if you play to ensure you are not scum
DEAL
VOTE: StanleyPalmtree
Explaining it to Pop:
*looks at pop*
*looks at the number next to the word "Day"*
*looks at pop again*
Explaining it to Kawl again:
I already explained it. To you, in fact. It clearly is a final vote, nobody else has even looked at LP seriously enough to move forward on a vote train, and yet he puts it there. Of course it doesn't definitively mean he is scum, hence my "flippant" response to pop.

Along the way LP joins the Stan wagon and jumps off at 392 with that weird unvote quote.

I've seen very blatant scum play lately. Quite unlike as Kawl, I tend to see the above as a red flag.

We are at 3 of 5 emotions at this point. Exmachina never bothered to react to me calling him out:
D1:
Next up exmachina dropping inside out gifs. Are you trying to tell us something?
D2:
Exmachina why did you bring up inside out gifs? Spitting your scumminess into the face of everyone?

Note how it is another emotion every time. I believe I've found our neutral with the task to post these gifs.
